Summary for Lesson 1

In today’s class we worked on building stories around one central moment or detail, thinking about pulling storylines from singular story ‘beats’. We did some metaphor work, playing around with imagery and language to create layered meaning, and the class thought of some great ideas for approaches to short stories. We dug into the ways in which story beats can build tension and move the plot forward and practiced different approaches to writing a scene. The class then came up with some amazing story ideas based upon a choice of three intriguing moments, such as a whispered secret, letting their imaginations come to life beautifully. Such incredible and creative work, everyone. Thank you for all your amazing energy and ideas today. Keep it up and see you next week 🙂
